What is the difference between a DUI, a DAI, or a DWI in Pennsylvania?
They are all the same thing. Technically, in 2004 Pennsylvania changed its drunk driving laws. The crime of drunk driving is now officially referred to as Driving After Imbibing (DAI); it replaced the old phrase DUI (driving under the influence). The two, however, are used interchangeably. DWI (driving while intoxicated) is also a term that is used informally in Pennsylvania, but is the legal term in many other states, such as New Jersey. See my Pennsylvania DAI laws page for more details.
